THRILLING ADVENTURE.
Six Hundred Men on Floating Ice in
Lake Erie.

BUFFALO. N. Y, Jan. 20.-With a south
westerly wind blowing from 80 to 80 miles an
hour over Lake Erie during the past 20 hours
the ice for some miles up became loosened,
causing "shoye." This afternoon fully GOO
men were scattered over the ice for ten
miles up the lake from the government
breakwater Shortly after / o'clock they
became suddenly aware that the ice was
breaking up, and a stampede ensued. The
men struck in all directions, many of them
not having time to even secure
their effects, while others had to leave their
dogs and sleds behind them, and flee for
their lives. Those who were fortunate
enough to be near the Canadian or Ameri-
can shore easily got to places of safety, but
the crowd in the centre had an exciting
time. Some Of them were suddenly brought
to standstill by seeing open patches of
water ahead of them, and turned only
to find they were completely cut
off. Some cakes f0ated one or two men,
others eight or ten, while one immense piece
bore up freight Of, fifty. human beings.
These had nothing to do but wait, and as the
cakes would come together take the chances
of jumping from one to another. They all
managed to get off but a party of
eight, who were seen floating ON a
piece in the open water. Three men
headed by fisherman named Cavhnagh OBJ
tanned boat and by carrying and rowing it
got as close to them as possible. Seven OF
the party jumped from cake te cake and
could not be induced to try it. He remained
where he was until his friends, after
much work, reached him and hall
dragged him off. 1t is reported that a
man named Haley is missing, but it is
thought he will turn up all right.

THE CROCKETT MURDER TRIAL.
Great Interest in the Case Among
Among Waldo County People.

BELFAST, Jan. 20.-The interest in the
Crockett murder trial is unabated. Admis-
sion is obtainable emily by ticket. DIR. John
son. who conducted the autopsy, described
the infamed and congested condition of the
vital parts, and testified that death resulted
from an irritant poison. j. f. Wilson, cor
oner, and e. c. Ellis. constable, testified to
receiving the vital organs and vomited mat
ter and transmitting them to Brunswick.
Franklin c. Robinson, professor of chemis-
try at Bowdoin College. and State assayer,
gave an account of the chemical analysis of
the substances received from the coroner.
He found third of grain of arsenic in the
organs and ten grains in the alleged vomited
matter. The arsenic was not the kind COM
posing Paris Green but may have been from
Rough on Rats.
In the afternoon the time was mostly spent
with the examination of DIR. S. w. johnson
as to the effects of arsenic on the human sys-
tem, two grains being the smallest fatal dose
known. DR.. j. NJ. Fletcher gave similar ex-
pert testimony. Wesley @. Peayy, a neigh
Dor of Crockett, testified to the first sick
ness of the deceased, and the indifference of
accused at the time of her husbands death.

THE MAINE STATE PRESS,
THE LEWISTON TRAGEDY.
putton Proposes to Make a Clean
Ereast of the Affair.
Especial to the Press. ]


E LEWISTON, Jan. 20.-The news that DR..
Morrill, had made frank confession in the
Matilda Clook affair, caused much surprise
here. 1t was thought last evening after the
statements of the doctor contradictory to his
wife's, that something had got to soon devel-
op. 1t was easily seen that he feared that
his wife would divulge something, and he
therefore offered the frail excuse that she
was at times out of her head. Judging from
the womans bearing and testimony, how
ever, this would not stand. Dutton was ar
locked up. The jury had long conversa-
tion with the doctor in his cell today. Re-
porters were excluded When arrested,
Dutton, who is jeweler, was cleaning a
watch. He looks care-worn and brain
racked A reporter managed to gain admit
tance to the city lookup tonight, and spoke
with both of the arrested men. DIR. Morrill,
said that he ''would not talk" and didn't.
They are in separate cells. During the in
terview DuttOn said:
"Iknow that have been under surveil-
anee while at home; / didn't care; today
was asked by the coroner If ! ever owned
any surgical instruments; have told them
had not any to speak of; was asked what
ones; l said destroyed a couple of "bour-
gies'' this morning. / tell you l destroyed
them because l knew that If my room was
searched and they found that instrument
there it would create a suspicion that / had
done the deed myself; | keep ergot for
my own use; when shown DR.. Morrilps tes-
timony he was visibly agitated, repeating to
himself, $50 he has squealed." Now, he
added, Il will not say another word until i
get before the investigation board and obtain
counsel | will guarantee that what / do say
will be straight from the shoulder. won't
try to shield myself or anybody else."
DR.. Morrill, came to Lewiston last summer
from Portland. He has testified before the
coroner's jury to having attended Miss Clook
and was alone present when she died. He
stated that Dutton induced him to secure
room and nurse, and attend Miss Clook.
The examination, it is claimed showed pre-
yious instrumental interference. He visited
and prescribed for her several times. Both
Morrill, and Dutton are detained at the city
prison.

BLAINE ON DAWES.
His Comments on the Election OF
the Massachusetts Senator.

BosroN, Jan. 2o.-A despatch to the Her
aid from Augusta says that Senator Bruce
of Mississippi reached there last night,
where he is to lecture this evening. Among
those who called upon him to pay their res
poets was MIR. Blaine. There were a num-
Der Of leading Republican members Of the
Legislature in the room. The conversation
turned upon the election Of Senator Dawes
OF Massachusetts by the means of Democrat
ic votes. when Mr.. Blaine. in his comments,
said:
Senator Dawes cann0t afford to accept his
election under such circumstances. If L
were in his place would resign and let an
other election take place. But suppose he
will remember that bird in the hand,
etc."
The rest Of the company shared Mr..
Blaine's opinion.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY.
Two Robbers Enter Store and Shoot
aYoung Man.
In Attempting to Escape They Are
Killed by an officer.

WHITE PLAINS, n Y. Jan. 20-Two
strangers entered G. III. Mead's store on
Railroad Avenue with cooked reyolvers at
GAO this evening apparently bent on robbery.
Mr.. Mead's son, VIM. E., 27 years old, came
out of the back room and drove them out.
The robbers shot him dead and then fled.
Chief of Police Lee and two officers heard
the shooting and followed and overlook the
murderers, who at once turned in another
direction and hid themselves under large
stone bridge which spans Broom river. Be
ing found there they fired several times at
the officers and when about to be taken shot
themselves dead The murdered man was
highly esteemed. He leaves widow and
child. On the bodies of the murderers were
found two new sheath daggers, with ten inch
blades, one mask, four heavy revolvers and
time tables of the Harlem and New York
City railroad. The men were about % and
20 years old.
LATER. .
1t now appears that after the shooting the
tive men jumped into sleigh and drove
away, but having mistaken their road re-
turned to the village ahd were fired at by
Chief of Police Lee and both were killed.
Great excitement prevails in the village.
